Fiona Macleod Books

"To you, dear friend, let me dedicate this bindweed of thoughts and dreams, which had their life by the grey shores you, also, love..." This is how Macleod began the timeless work, a compilation of lore from the land that fashioned him, his race, and his faith. In this volume, the master storyteller retells the ancient tales that have long been forgotten by his people, and lost in the annals of several thousand years of history. He resurrects such tales as:"The Wayfarer","The Lords of Wisdom","Cuilidh Mhoire", "The Lynn of Dreams","Maya",and"The Awakening of Angus Og" and many more. If your ancestry is Irish-Gaelic, this book is a "must-read" for you. It is full of reminscing and an underlying, deep sorrow of a forgotten culture which is dying in the minds of its own people. Read it and remember. Read it and be glad at your heritage.

Tracey Cox's book entitled Hot Sex: How to do it was probably one of the most useless books I have ever read. Not only does the author take the time to explain even the most basic of sexual positions and situations, but time is spent explaining other aspects such as sexually transmitted diseases and performance problems. I think it is obvious to most people that if the man can't perform, he either needs to get some drugs or hot sex is never going to happen. And as for sexually transmitted diseases, please. I think the generation that this book is targeted towards has heard enough about std's to last them until they die of AIDS. I have to agree that there are some aspects of the book I liked. Her catagories on how to vary sex, and how to increase comfort level for those who are less experienced are rather interesting. Overall, I would have to say that one can gain all the useful information from this book by flipping to the good sections. So you may want to just pass over this one and move on to reading that may teach you something.

A visually stunning book that is more coffee table than reference book. Yet it still manages to be informative and fun to a degree that so few of these genre of books ever are, as it maintains a level of lightheartednesss where appropriate. I loved lines like "a mouthful of spunk has the same amount of protein as an average sized pork chop". Brilliant.
It also doesn't frighten it's readers by over intellectualizing sex, instead keeping it both real and accessible to all. It deals with sexual problems with both sensitivity and an understanding that offers geniune and new ways out of the darkness.
It has REALLY improved mine and my girlfriends sex lifes no end.

I liked this book so much I bought it for a friend, and plan on buying its sister book Hot Relationships. however, if you're looking for detailed information on homosexual relationships, sex toys, explaining sex to your kids, anal sex, or/and how intercourse isn't the end-all be-all of sex, I recommend The Guide to Getting It On by the Goofyfoot Press. But I would definitely start with this one, if you've never read a sex book and don't mind the hetero-centrism, as The Guide is so packed with info it can be a bit overwhelming.

This book wa ok to read, but I found it to contain nothing dramatic and nothing that most adult people don't already know.

I have to admit I purchased this book because of the hot title and it was a little bit of a let down because of it. That being said, I still thought the suggestions and the advice given in this book was good. It was my own fault what little disappointment I felt after reading this book. I was expecting something a little more??? Well you know, right?
